Description

The present invention relates to a cleaning tool in which a flat rubber ring for fitting a specific finger is attached to a sponge used for cleaning various items such as dishes, bathtubs, automobiles, and human bodies.

Conventionally, at the time of washing, it is necessary to have the power to rub and wash the tableware while holding the sponge with one hand with a certain level of force. The invention and device that do not drop the sponge during washing and can be washed even if the gripping force is weak are as follows. There is a rubbing wiping tool for inserting a finger into a cylindrical portion made of a net cloth of Patent Document 1, and a sponge that does not drop, with a rubber string attached to the side of the sponge of Utility Model Document 2.

Utility model document 2

Registered Utility Model No. 3021961

Hold the sponge with your hand to wash the dishes, but the power may be slightly weakened or it may become slippery with detergent and drop off. In addition, it may be difficult to wash dishes due to weakness in illness or injury.

In Patent Document 1, the cylindrical portion into which a finger is inserted is made of a net cloth having elasticity. It seems that it is difficult to adjust the size of the hole of the cylindrical portion to the thickness of everyone's finger, and it becomes slippery and removes from the finger by using a detergent. For utility model document 2, rubber strings are passed through the side of the sponge. Since the rubber string is passed through the entire sponge, it is difficult to fix the finger, and when washing, the sponge is dented by a rubbing force to form a gap, and when moving the hand, it seems that force is required for any finger.

In order to solve the above, two cuts are vertically inserted in the center position of the sponge and penetrated, and a flat rubber is attached to the cut portion as a loop. Or, sew a flat rubber ring in the center of the left and right sides of the sponge. And it solves by putting a specific finger in the ring and using a sponge.

This device is strong in contraction and has a certain length of tolerance, so it is necessary to use flat rubber that does not need to worry about the thickness of the finger, and to fit flat rubber on a specific finger. It is a feature. By attaching flat rubber to the base of a specific finger, the sense of unity with the sponge increases. In addition, the flat rubber has a narrow width, can be easily fitted to the base of the finger, and is difficult to slip even if detergent is used.

The present invention does not slip out of the hand even if the force to grip the sponge is weak. In addition, almost no gripping force is required, and it is only necessary to fit a specific finger on a flat rubber ring and attach the finger to the sponge during cleaning. By reducing the gripping force, the cleaning time of the dishes is increased, and the cleaning work time is shortened. Moreover, even if it uses detergent, it does not slip and is hard to come off. Flat rubber has strong shrinkage, has a certain length of tolerance, and has the following effects when fitted on a specific finger. A sense of unity with the sponge is achieved without worrying about the thickness of the fingers. Sponges can be shared with people with different finger thicknesses. When rinsing tableware with water, it is possible to remove the sponge from the hand quickly and easily. Can be used from above rubber gloves. Easy installation with one hand.

Best mode for carrying out the invention

In the present invention, two cuts through which a flat rubber having a width of about 0.5 cm can be inserted and penetrated in the center position of the sponge (1) in FIG. A flat rubber is passed through the notch (2) and attached to a ring having a diameter of about 3 cm. The interval between the two cuts may be about 2 cm. The specific finger to be fitted to the attached flat rubber ring (3) may be the index finger, the middle finger, the third finger, or one of the fingers, or two of them. All you have to do is fit a flat rubber to the base of your finger and then lightly attach your finger to the sponge. 2 and 3 are views in which the index finger and the middle finger are fitted into a flat rubber ring (3).

A flat rubber ring (5) (6) with a diameter of about 1.5 cm is sewn left and right at the center of the left and right sides as shown in the sponge (4) in FIG. 4, and only the thumb is attached to either flat rubber ring. It is used by fitting. At that time, neither finger fits into the other flat rubber ring. 5 and 6, the right rubber thumb (6) is fitted with the thumb of the right hand, and the flat rubber ring (5) remains empty. As shown in FIG. 7, there is also a method in which notches are inserted into the left and right ends of the sponge (7) and penetrated, and flat rubber is passed through both of the notches (8) to form rings (10) and (11).

The width of the flat rubber is about 0.5 cm, and all fingers are not restricted by movement. Using a sponge with the entire sponge covered with a nylon net cloth makes it easier to attach flat rubber and prevents damage to the sponge during cleaning. As for the material, flat rubber can obtain the same effect even with woven rubber. The sponge may be an acrylic, polyurethane, non-woven fabric or the like conventionally used as a cleaning tool.

The sponge in FIG. 1 is formed by passing a flat rubber through the notch (2) into a ring, so that the flat rubber is pulled on the opposite side of the surface to be used and is fitted on the finger. And the sponge of FIG. 4 and FIG. 7 fits a thumb on either one of the flat rubber | gum rings in the center position of both right and left side surfaces. Accordingly, both the sponges of FIGS. 1, 4 and 7 can be used on both sides, and sponges of different materials can be provided on the back surface. In addition, by attaching a flat rubber ring to the center of the sponge, it is possible to clean either the top or bottom of the surface to be used.

When the sponge of FIG. 1 is used, even if a flat rubber of about 2 cm × 0.5 cm appears on the surface opposite to the surface on which the finger is fitted, it does not get in the way of cleaning and there is no problem in the cleaning ability. (Figure 2)

The attached flat rubber ring (3) (5) (6) (9) (10) can be used as a hanging ring for drying the sponge after use.
